pedit COW & DirtyClone: Two Critical Linux Kernel Flaws in 2026
Within a few weeks in 2026, two Linux kernel local privilege-escalation flaws were published that work the same way: CVE-2026-46331 (nicknamed "pedit COW") and CVE-2026-43503...
From Europe to Australia, from start-ups to corporations: Companies worldwide trust our future-proof solutions - more every day.
Four patterns we see with our clients again and again - and that software, infrastructure or AI rarely solve on their own.
Standard products cover your processes only partly. The rest is forced through workarounds, spreadsheets and manual steps.
Public cloud setups often grow faster than planned: cost, data flows, permissions and operations become hard to control.
Pilot projects impress in the workshop but never make it into secure, productive day-to-day operation.
Monitoring, backups, updates, security and responsibilities are only clarified once the system is already in production.
Software is the application core, infrastructure the operating base, AI and automation the intelligence and efficiency layer. We connect these layers into one productive system - instead of treating them in isolation.
Custom platforms for complex operational, infrastructure and data processes.
Sovereign infrastructure on which systems run reliably, securely and under control - in public cloud, private cloud, on Proxmox or hybrid.
Make company knowledge, processes and internal systems usable with local AI.
Not every project needs every building block. Depending on your starting point, we support migration, public cloud operations, Proxmox, Kubernetes, secure networking, custom software or local AI. We start where the need is - and connect the layers only where it creates real value.
Cloud migration, cloud exit, VMware migration, legacy modernization and containerization.
Public cloud, private cloud, Proxmox, Kubernetes, monitoring, backups and SLA.
VPN, zero trust, site connectivity, HMI access and secure client access.
Platforms, portals, APIs, data and automation systems.
RAG, local LLMs, AI features, agents and workflows.
Every building block works on its own. Combined, they form an end-to-end solution of software, infrastructure, networking, AI and operations.
Not a service list - concrete project types at the intersection of software, infrastructure and AI.
Secure access to distributed assets, HMIs and sites - multi-tenant and auditable.
Automate sites, deployments and cloud resources - just like at nextGYM.
Virtualization without license costs, highly available and operated sovereignly.
Make documents, databases and APIs usable with local LLMs - with sources and permissions.
Assistants and automation right where your processes and data already live.
Public cloud, private cloud or hybrid: we plan, migrate and operate infrastructure so cost, data flows and responsibility stay controllable.
Automation, remote-access platforms, cloud exit and sovereign operations - real projects, not tool installs.
No risk: worst case, you leave with a clearer understanding of your project than before.


“WZ-IT's advice on our Azure migration was technically sound and completely non-binding right from the intro call - we took away a great deal.”
Classic software agencies often stop at the code. System houses tend to think in terms of infrastructure and tickets. AI agencies deliver impressive prototypes but rarely production operations. WZ-IT combines software development, infrastructure, AI and operations in one accountable team.
No handover losses between development, hosting and operations - one party accountable for the whole system.
Proven open-source stacks as a principle and building block, not a product shelf - you stay in control.
Full data and operational control: on your own hardware, in the AI Cube or on European infrastructure.
Monitoring, backups, security and updates are part of the solution from the start, not an afterthought.
Whether platform, infrastructure, cloud exit or local AI - in a short architecture call we clarify whether and how WZ-IT fits your project.

RustDesk has made unflattering headlines repeatedly in the first half of 2026: a botnet abusing the public server, a forced login on the demo server,...
Two news items reshaped the market for modern mesh VPNs in 2026. Tailscale overhauled its pricing and now bills business plans per seat. And NetBird,...
Whether a specific IT challenge or just an idea - we look forward to the exchange. In a brief conversation, we'll evaluate together if and how your project fits with WZ-IT.
